I started my Barber career in Humacao, Puerto Rico cutting from the balcony of my apartment. I grew a big clientele, also clientele from local barbershops in the pueblo were becoming my clients. I didn't realize i had a talent, more of a blessing for hairstyling and doing art on hair. I started to do this for income because I got laid off my front desk job at Four Points Resorsts by Sheraton Hotels. I realized i can actually hold my family down with being a barber, so i decided to pursue my barber license. I enrolled to instituto de Banca y Comercio where i had two great professors who became family to me. Luis pizarro who taught me Fades and Scissors fashion cuts and Josean Cotto Colon who taught me the art of designing on hair. Both became a guidance towards my life and decission making. Unfortunately i had some judicial problems in2010- 2011 and was unable to finish the curriculum for that semester. On May 20, 2011 I came out of Bayamon 705 correctional facility, I was determine to finish my barbering education. I enrolled back in school to finish what i started. With Josean Cotto Colon I was able to experience and participate in various competition such as San Juan Beauty Show and Ponce Barber show. which i didn't win any prizes but i love the adrenalyne of competition. Which let me to be a sole propietor of Fashion Cuts and Nails Salon. Unfortunately business and the economy situation in Puerto Rico was terrible in 2012 and decided to sell for December of that year.
I headed for the states for better living. Since here in the U.S. God has watch my back and bless me with so much not just family, love, financially but letting me do what i love being, a barber. Also, has let me to be part of a group of barbers from The Tri-state area and represent a Barber Movement not just in Puerto Rico and the states but internationaly uniting barbers from all over the globe. Now i've been given a chance to show my talent across the world. My name is Bryan Pedraza to others known as Bryan the Barber and i'am We Are Barbers Inc. and Dreamteamcutz. We are artist.
